City of Auburn

Big city amenities, small town feel.

25 of the 50 industrial companies in Auburn are foreign owned, five of which are German (ID Plastics, RAPA, Schmidt, Straehle+Hess, Winkelmann). They located in Auburn because of Auburn University and its well-recognized school of engineering (6,300+ students), an excellent infrastructure including the proximity to the Atlanta International Airport which serves more than 75 international destinations and 150 U.S. destinations, the positive demographics (fastest growing city in Alabama and approximately 900,000+ people living within a 50 mile radius), and the cosmopolitan feel of a progressive and diverse community with a quality of life that includes a nationally ranked public school system.
